Oh damn...I never got the feather duster, since my parents didn't have one, but I was beaten with metal spatulas...? They served the same purpose. I wonder if they ever used those same spatulas for their intended purposes. I got kicked out of the house once, when I was really little (uh...2 years old, almost 3?) because my dad had been teaching me my multiplication tables, and I spaced out (two-year-olds have no attention spans. I sat there for hours. :O ), so when he asked me what 1x1 was, I had no clue. So he kicked me out of the house [it was 10-11 p.m., cold, cold].
The horrors of asian parents' punishments. argh. I wonder a lot, whether I'll ever be like that to my kids...? If I have any, anyway.

Asian parents' punishments are way harsh! I hope we won't be like that to our kids because we're Westernized and stuff, but I guess you just never know....

As for kicking your toddler out of the house because they can't concentrate on stuff through no fault of their own... *rages*

lilaznffairy421 March 15 2004, 21:13:15 UTC

Yep, they are.
I hope we won't be either; that would really suck.

Unfair people. But...oh well.

glowing_dragon March 15 2004, 21:52:53 UTC

Yes, totally unfair. Total suckage, too. :|

Wow, there is a lot of pain there. I am proud to say that you turned out just fine despite it though. You strike me as a very nurturing and caring person and this level of strife so early in your formative years shocks me a bit. You came out of it beautifully I think.

glowing_dragon July 7 2007, 19:38:55 UTC

Heh, thanks. Gotta make something positive out of the whole thing, haha.

ringsideriot July 7 2007, 19:43:16 UTC

You are frightenly positive and I hope someday it rubs off a little on Mr. Negative over here.

glowing_dragon July 7 2007, 21:34:29 UTC

Sometimes, I'm not. But it might...

Thanks for sharing.

It's funny how everyone (including me) thinks they are alone in their crazy fucked up less than ideal childhoods.

One day I will blog about mine. It's about the only topic I have avoided in my blog so far.

glowing_dragon August 4 2009, 04:14:46 UTC

Heh, no worries. Maybe it's because you can't really share it as a little kid. Who knows.
